ATLANTA , May 28, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Here To Serve Holding Corp., (OTC: HTSC) (OTC Pink), which had previously announced on May 14, 2014 that it had closed on the acquisition of nearly all of the assets and operations of its initial waste management company, Meridian Waste Services in St. Louis, MO area, today announced that its Waste Division has entered into a Letter of Intent ("LOI") to acquire assets of another solid waste company in a Southeastern market.
The Company anticipates that the transaction will add additional revenue and positive earnings to HTSC.
On May 15 th , 2014, HTS-Missouri Waste Division, LLC ("HTS-MWD"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Here To Serve Holding Corp., acquired the 100% of the assets of Meridian Waste Services, LLC from its then partners for over $20 million in cash and stock in the Company.
Financing of the transaction consisted of a senior debt facility of $9.5 million , $1.5 million in seller subordinated financing, roughly 13.2 million restricted shares of HTSC and 71,210 Preferred Shares –Series B. In addition, HTSC secured two credit facilities for ongoing capital expenditures and working capital. HTSC anticipates HTS-MWD will add annual revenues in excess of $11.5M , annual EBITDA close to $2.9M and Net Income of over $1.2M .
In releasing additional details of the transaction and its effects on the Company's structure, Jeff Cosman , CEO of HTSC said: "After the acquisition there are roughly 55,000,000 shares outstanding with an estimated 19,000,000 shares in the float. We issued restricted shares to the partners of Meridian. We are working on cleaning up the balance sheet of "inheritance taxes" from investors of the previous entity (FTCH). Despite all of this, HTSC is a tightly held company with significant earnings going forward. In addition, the culture is ground breaking, in that, it has a start-up technology mentality in the Tech Division coupled with the precision of execution and a mature business model in the waste industry. We are breaking new ground for Pink Sheet companies and we will exit out OTC Markets with considerable momentum for our existing shareholders and a dedication to create a growth vehicle for new potential shareholders."
Cosman went on to say: "Here To Serve is focused on several milestones in the next 6 months; completing a two-year audit of Meridian Waste Services, additional acquisitions in the solid waste industry, up-listing to the NYSE MKT, registering an S1 with the SEC, completing a secondary offering and launching its ground breaking mobile app, cConnects."
"We are clearly defining our tasks for the next 6 months", added Jeff Cosman . "I remain confident our organization can execute the strategy to create a growth investment vehicle for those interested in waste management and technology. I believe the Waste and Technology divisions can offer customers in our markets an efficient opportunity to communicate with our organization. Our core proprietary technology product, cConnects TM , is more than an internal platform for communication; it is a dynamic cross-platform mobile app creating efficient communication for all industries, organizations and social environments. Partnering with a significant player in the cloud-based solutions and business processing industry for the beta testing of cConnects TM has far surpassed our expectations for the future. We continue to receive positive feedback while anticipating our "go-live" date in the coming month(s)."
HTS-MWD has begun the two-year audit of Meridian Waste Services. HTSC is finalizing its Investment Banking partner to lead the secondary offering and will retain SEC legal counsel in the coming weeks to finalize the S1 registration.
